One of the fashion papers published in New York says: "Dead birds are worn this year chiefly by frivolous women and girls and thoughtless women of all sorts.

When will christianitv lift people to a higher plane of thinking and living? To wear a dead bird is cruel. It is a crime against the
birds themselves and the God who made them. While the birds may have no soul, women ought to have soul enough to discountenance such cruelty."

For a Marvel of Beauty and a Joy Forever, a
Cleveland or Rambler
